Crafts Inspired by 'The Adventures of Tintin'

The comic book character Tintin and his faithful, albeit sarcastic, terrier Snowy have inspired not only generations of readers but crafters as well. From simple embroidered quilts to clever upcycled home decor, this gingery problem solver has inspired more than a few clever crafts.

Cross the Line

Our favorite Belgian newspaperman is on the run in this crafty cross stitch. We're particular fans of the shadow detailing and buff short pants tucked into his socks, which just might be the next Hipster fashion trend.

Use vintage Tintin comics as the carrier for your cards and letters. Or, consider using the classic stories as journal covers, wrapping paper or even the material for paper ornaments and party decor. Made by Jo for 42 Things.

Stamp of Approval

The characters of Tintin and Snowy (along with a few of their essential accessories) become a surprised digital stamp, great for adding unique graphics to playful artwork or stationary.
